Arum is the latest restaurant from acclaimed chef Peter Tempelhoff and the award-winning FYN Group.

Set within the iconic Werf building - the estate’s original 1812 cellar - Arum will bring a bold farm-to-fire dining experience to Franschhoek, celebrating Boschendal’s agricultural heritage with local, seasonal ingredients and a vibrant sense of place.

For Chef Peter Tempelhoff, Arum is about alignment - of place, produce, and philosophy. “Boschendal brought all of those elements together,” he says. “As a heritage wine estate and agricultural haven, it was an opportunity I couldn’t pass up - a chance to create something that reflects Boschendal’s deep connection to the land.”

    Outstanding food and service. The Octopus starter was wonderfully smokey and delicious. The ribeye steak was possibly the best I have tried anywhere. Not just the quality of the meat but the presentation of the fat which added to the flavour and the mix of chimichuri and sides was the perfect combination. Impeccable but relaxed service plus the fact that you are not obliged to have a tasting menu makes it a wonderful choice in a lovely location. Thank you.

    Everything was on the money. The food, flavours, portion sizes, drinks, wine, SERVICE! We thoroughly enjoyed every element of our time at Arum, and will be back ASAP

    We were over the moon happy to find a reservation at this restaurant a month in advance. The setting is extraordinary, but the chef and staff take it to stardom! Watch this spot.
